"Those who fought in Vietnam are part of us, part of our history. They reflected the best in us. No number of wreaths, no amount of music and memorializing will ever do them justice but it is good for us that we honor them and their sacrifice"- former President Ronald Reagan #NationalVietnamWarVeteransday

Updates to the rules surrounding transferring Post-9/11 GI Bill benefits give service members a smaller window to transfer. Be sure to stay on top of the latest changes to these provisions if this is something you are or will be interested in for your family in the future. The Post-9/11 GI Bill and the transfer of benefits are two separate programs, so make sure your benefits and #KnowYourMil.

No one understands the importance of putting "the right people in the right places" in order to accomplish greatness, like the Citizen Airmen and Soldiers of The National Guard. The duality of our state and Federal mission is demanding and takes a diverse force with diverse skillsets to get the job done. The members of the 166th Airlift Wing Force Support Squadron, hit the nail on the head in this #IAmTheMission spotlight. Every member, working together, gets the mission done.

Staff Sgt. Crystal Lopez is assigned to the 142nd Fighter Wing Mission Support Group. She is mobilizing soon, along with over 100 of her wingmen from the unit. Her twin sister attended her mobilization ceremony to stand in solidarity with her and support her service. This is what we mean when we say the Air National Guard is a family business.

Hey 119th Wing North Dakota Air National Guard, way to #GetAfterIt. The Air National Guard Director and I were impressed by the culture and the “can do” attitude of the Airmen - from Security Forces at the gate to the wing leadership it was very evident.

The Air National Guard is a family business, and as family businesses go, it can sometimes bear unique and unexpected stressors. Balancing life as a Citizen Airmen is not always easy. From the top down, even General Joseph L. Lengyel, Chief of The National Guard Bureau, has to weigh the demands of the Core Value, "Service before Self". But when you approach it as a family business, taking care of your family along the way, you can find excellence on both sides of citizen service.
